This kinda jives with what I know of most of ya so far.

Yeah, couple of questions were loaded with me, specifically concerning abortion and environmentalism.

Still no one more libertarian than me yet.

Remember, being an extremist is usually a bad thing.

You are a left moderate social libertarian.
Left: 6.87, Libertarian: 1.67

Most of the questions were very polarizing, almost nothing in the neutral zone. Some seemed written by neoconservatives, a state of mind this test proves I'm the antithesis of.

That survey is really crappy,
there were several questions that are very vague and the first thing that I thought was
"It depends, sometimes yes, sometimes no"

Here's mine:
In few words "I don't, and will never trust corporations more than government"




My Political Views:
I am a left moderate social libertarian.
Left: 6.27, Libertarian: 1.74

I would disagree with that. Of course, I am a bit biased. I'm relatively "extreme" in my social libertarianism (second only to ViewFromThePeak).

I tend to think of them more as "purists" than extremists. There's a natural distribution that will always leave some on the fringe, but that's okay. Without purists or extremists, societies stagnate. New ideas usually come from those who aren't in the mainstream.

I like seeing that most people here are libertarians. It's also interesting that it appears to be the more literate posters who took the time to take the quiz and post their results.

I'm a centrist moderate social libertarian. That's what I was last time I took a similar test -- actually, I was a little lower (towards libertarian) and a little more to the right, but still left of the longitude line -- and here I thought I was feeling more conservative lately.

-8.19 on foreign policy (very non-interventionalist)
-5.37 cultural liberal.

Overall, I can't say I'm surprised.
